he attention and energies of its states
men. The Salisbury ministry is to-day
confronted with crisis which must lead
10 dangerous complications, whatever
may be the issues presented. In the
present condition of Europe, England
may we'll dread any contingency COM
her interests abroad; for,
whatever may happen, she will neces-
sarily be forced to divert her attention
from external affairs to concentrate
them exclusively upon events which are
now in fermentation within the boun-
daries of her own horizon. Everything
surrounding the Salisbury Govern
ment is in state of the highest
uncertainty, The position of the
cabinet is so dubious and precarious that
no foreign power, nor even England her
self, could venture a reliable prognosis
upon the immediate future The colos-
sal danger at this moment suspended
over the British Government is the Irish
question, more menacing, more imperi-
Gus than ever before. The Parliament
airy debate upon the bill authorizing fresh
coercive measures must, of necessity,
result in a crisis to be alike dreaded
whether favorable or inimical to the
ministry. 1t is inevitable that it will be
contested with passionate energy. From
its very nature the bill betrays the e1-
treme anxiety of the Government. 1t
surpasses in its oppressive rigor all the
measures for Ireland hitherto introduced.
These measures, indeed, are the most
astounding conception which could have
entered into the brain of British
statesman, when it is considered that
the trial by jury is universally regarded
as the fundamental basis of the
liberties of the United Kingdom. II
would seem impossible they should be
sustained by any other party than one oi
the most advanced Toryism. And yet il
appears certain, according to Lord Hart
ington's declarations, that they will be
defended to the last by LIBERAL Unionists
who, it would seem, prefer rather to sac
rifce the principles of constitutional lib
erty to which their policy has been con
secrated than to restore Mr.. Gladstone tC
power upon the ruins of the Salisbury
ministry. II the Crimes bill becomes s
law, and there is little room left indeed
for saving doubt, on the subject, no one
can foresee the extent of the calamitie:
which would be given birth to, for it has
already been demonstrated Ito all but the
self-deluded Salisbury Ministry that Ire
land will not submit to regime so arbi
trary and oppressive.

A BRIGHT STAR.

Mormonism is still able to recruit itself
from the effete countries of the old world.
Thousands have drifted into Utah from
that source within the last few years.
OF course, these recruits are poor and
weak people. What deluded and feeble
minded Mormon population there must
be in Utah Territory. People who believe
in modern revelations from heaven to
Brigham Young and his successors are
of the capacity TO submit to the rule of a
bigoted hierarchy composed of Mormon
elders. 1t would be an act of civilization
if the government could arrest the growth
of Mormon population within the bor-
ders of the United States. The stain of
the blight is black enough and large
enough. 1t onght not to be permitted to
spread.-Kansas City Star.

FINDING PHARAOH.

In the May Century are two proiusely
illustrated articles under the above cap
ton describing the discovery of Pharaoh's
tomb and picturing its contents. From
the first article by Mr. Wilson, the photog-
rapher, we quote this account of the way
in which the tomb was located: "In a
line of tombs beyond the Ramesseum
lived four sturdy Arabs named Adder
Rasoul. They supplied guides and dom
keys to tourists who desired to visit the
ruins of Thebes, and sold them genuine
and spurious antiquities. When they
found mummy, it being forbidden by
law to sell it, the head and hands and
feet were wrenched off and sold on the
sly, while the torso was kicked about the
ruined temples until the jackals came
and carried it away. purchased head
and hand of one of the brothers amid
the dark shadows of the temple at
Qurneh. Early in 1881 circumstantial
evidence pointed to Ahmed Adder Ra-
soul as the one who knew more than he
would tell. Professor Maspero caused
his arrest, and he lay in prison at Keneh
| for some months. He also suffered the
bastinado and the browbeating of the
women repeatedly; he resisted bribes,
and showed no melting mood when
| threatened with execution. His lips
told no more than the unbound tomb
| and not as much. Finally his brother
Mohammed regarded the offer of 'bak-
shish,' which Professor Maspero deemed
it wise to make, as worth more
| to him than any sum he might
hope to realize from future pillaging, and
made clean breast of the whole affair.
| How the four brothers ever discovered
the hidden tomb has remained q family
secret On July 5th, 1881, the willy Arab
conducted Herr Emil Brugsch Bey, cura-
tor of the Bulab Museum, to Deir-el-
Bahari, and pointed out the hiding place
so long looked for. A long climb it was,
up the slope of the western mountain,
till, after scaling great limestone cliff,
huge, isolated rock was found. Behind
this a spot was reached where the stones
appeared to an expert observer and tomb
searcher to have been arranged by
hand rather than scattered by some up
heaval of nature. There said the sui
len guide, and there the enterprlslng
Emil Brugsch Bey, with more than
Egyptian alacrity, soon had staff OF
Arabs at work hosting the loose stones
from a we'll into which they had been
been thrown. The shaft had been sunk
into the solid limestone to the depth OF
about forty feet, and was about SIX feet
square Before going very far, huge
palm log was thrown across the well and
a block and tackle fastened to it to help
bring up the debris. When the bottom
of the shaft was reached subterranean
passage was found, which ran westward
some twenty-four feet and then turned
directly northward, continuing into the
heart of the mountain straight except
where broken for about 200 feet by an
abrupt stairway. The passage terminated
in mortuary chamber about thirteen by
twenty-three feet in extent and barely
six feet in hight. There was found the
mummy of King Pharaoh OF the OPP
preston, with nearly forty others of
kings, queens, princes and priests"

THE LOYAL LEAGUE.

THE DEMOCRAT has heretofore given
some reasons why, in its opinion, the
next session of Congress will be the
most favorable time for procuring such
legislation for Utah as will effect some
practical results. The Loyal League was
organized, as is generally understood, for
that purpose. The ineficiency OF the
laws enacted at the last session has al
ready been abundantly proven to the
Gentiles of this Territory and the result
OF the election will convince the
most charitable minded Congressman
that no form of oath can
be devised which will offset the
elasticity of the consciences of the
people who have caused the necessity Of
strong and perhaps unprecedented legis-
lation for Utah. The present law can be
made useful only as a means of demon
strating to Congress that q stronger
measure is necessary. 1t would be the
height OF folly to lose the opportunity of
pushing the matter while it is still
fresh in the minds of the people
Of the Nation, and while seats are
retained by so many members of both
branches of Congress who pledged them
selves to the loyal representatives that
they would give us a stronger law if the
present one proved failure. 1t should
be apparent to the officers of the League,
il the present organization is not main
tanned, and if it is permitted to go out
Of existence, as matters now stand
that it can never be resurrected, nor the
loyal people of Utah be united in such
Il shape as to facilitate the only meant
for the redemption Of Utah from the
political control of the Mormon priest
hood.
